Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?

How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".

However a lot of people now are moving over to clickBAR clickies. These work in a different way, in which there is a thin metal bar that the stem pushes down on, and the click is made from the bar snapping back against the plastic housing. The feeling these give are different when typing, and the sound is also different. As these don't have loose parts, for a start they have no rattling sound. It's just a straight click noise (sort of like a mouse click sound). They also offer a really nice sharp tactile bump. They come in two flavours, which are the normal clickbar, or the thick clickbar. Normal ones are found on the Box Whites and the heavier Box Pale Blues. Thick clickbars are found on the Box Jade and the heavier Box Navy. There are also a couple of non-box versions of clickbar for those that might want to try lubing their clickbar switches, which are the Kailh Speed Bronze / Pink (same switch just different colour stems), and the heavier Speed Heavy Pale Blue, and also the Speed Navy, which might I add is even heavier feeling than the Box Navy, although a bit scratchy even with lube from my findings. Very interesting switch nonetheless. I actually really like the feeling of a lubed Speed Bronze. The reason you can't lube the box switches is they are designed to reject liquid as they are designed to be waterproof, and it means it will push the lube out of the hole in the bottom of the switch and will make a mess.
